If you follow this blog you may recall that last month I made a giant batch of homemade chicken soup.
And as a consequence of that project there remained a giant batch of
chicken bones and meat schnibbles. Which I
filled an entire gallon Ziploc bag. And froze
for some scheme I had up my sleeve. On Monday,
April 2nd I hatched the scheme.
I deposited the frozen bag of chicken parts directly in front of a trail
camera to see who might pay a visit.
1944 photos later I’ve assembled a compilation of the events as they
unfolded. I left the date and time stamp
on each photo for purposes of documenting the chronology. Check
back daily for a day by day update of the over six days of what happens to chicken parts.
Monday, April 2 – The very last thing I did before
leaving town was to hike over the trail camera situated a couple hundred yards
from the house and deposit the contents of a gallon Ziploc bag five feet from
the camera. It was a frozen block of
compacted chicken bones and meat bits and I figured it would be irresistible to
the critters. Predictably, within
minutes the first of a bazillion visiting crows (Corvus brachyrhynchos) arrived along with our resident Red-tail hawk
(Buteo jamaicensis).
